Pretty hot vehicle!

I checked every link available on the site, but was unable determine if the turboprop is proprietary, or from a vendor. Looks sort of like a Garrett, but I couldn't get enough detail and my experience is with GE, Turbomeca, Allison/Rolls Royce and P&W.

Anyone have any further info?
